We have a Date and a time... what about a where??

I had Dr Helbling for my surgeon (lapband). I have had no issues and would definitely recommend him.

I agree with Kelly.  Your body will release it's fat stores in good time.  Just keep eating healthy, get some exercise (or step it up a notch if you already do) & you will be fine.

From 6.5 weeks out to now (10 weeks), I've been averaging about 2 pounds/week.  I also wi**** was faster & there's a little evil voice in my head that's saying I just won't be one of those "good losers" in the long-run.  We have to just take a deep breath & know that our bodies will release it when it's darn good & ready.  It is about inches too, like Kelly said.

When was the last time in your life that you lost 24 pounds in 7.5 weeks???? Never?
Those are wonderful numbers. Each person loses at a different rate. Be prepared for a stall around the corner and then remember how well you have done this far. I know it gets frustrating each and every day. When I was not losing pounds -I was losing inches. My longest stall was almost 2 months long,I thought oh heck I am done,It didn't work etc.. then the scale started moving again. Keep up the positive attitude and good work. Take your measurements and compare them to the past ones ( I do this monthly). Never compare yourself to others loses,you will only get discouraged.
Best of luck,keep us posted!

I am 7 & 1/2  weeks out from my RNY surgery.   I have had lots of difficulty with nausea, taking vitamins and tolerating food.  Things are starting to get better.  I still am not able to eat as much or as often as I should be able to by now.  I am a little discouraged by the fact that the weight doesn't seem to be coming off very fast.  I did lose 50 pounds preparing for surgery but have only lost 24 in the past 7 & 1/2 weeks.  Am I losing too slowly?
